Attendees: Michael Bouschen, Craig Russell

Reminder: for the next several months, the conference call will be conducted at 9 am Pacific Standard Time.

Agenda:

1. News on JDO-717 copyjdorijars does not cleanup target directory 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-717?

no change.

2. News on spec update?

no change.

3. Need to check the specification for assertions for new test cases that were added. We should review all resolved issues and make sure that new tests have assertions that match the specification.

We will need a spec update for JDO-678 (assertion for 12.19).

4. Other issues

Square brackets in the specification: Michelle opines:

The most similar case presented in these sources is the use of brackets for references, but that is strictly for a reference that provides a key to bibliographic entries that are listed elsewhere in the document. IMHO, it would be more in accord with standard usage to use parentheses instead of square brackets for internal cross references in the spec. This would alleviate potential confusion with the brackets in assertion markers when using a script to extract assertions.

So any cross references to other sections should use parentheses. Maybe we should avoid making this change until we have reviewed and approved the 3.1 changes. Chapters that are not affected by 3.1 could have the bracket-to-parens change made any time, with no requirement to record changes.

Some progress on JDO-678 test case.
